Summary

This clinical trial is part of a series of brief interventions to reduce suicide risk in collaboration with the social media platform RallyPoint, a site specifically designed for U.S. servicemembers and veterans to connect with one another. This RCT (Intervention 2: Stigma Reduction) is focused on decreasing the stigma associated with sharing one's personal experiences related to mental health on the RallyPoint site. Specifically, the investigators will test the effect of a psychoeducational intervention that will provide participants information on the potential benefits of self-disclosure.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Stigma-reduction intervention

Participants will be presented with a list of common reasons why people report not wanting to tell other people about their mental health concerns, drawing from research in this area. Participants will be asked to click on any reason that resonates with them or about which they are interested in learning more. When they click on a particular reason, they will then be presented with psychoeducational information to allay their concerns. For example, if a participant replies that they wouldn't reach out to peers "because others don't understand what I'm going through," we might present context showing that many of their peers have had similar challenges with mental health and have found peer support helpful. Participants will be able to click on as many reasons on this list that they would like to.
